Notes
These shallow bowls are very similar in form to type 54/04 cooking pots/bowls in Malvernian unglazed ware. They appear to have served the same purpose but are red and glazed as opposed to grey and unglazed, which suggests that they were viewed differently by the produced and presumably the customer.
